Women's Winter Helmet GIRO TENET MIPS — Size M (55.5–59 cm), matte stone pearl, MIPS protection

The GIRO TENET MIPS in matte stone pearl is a women's winter helmet in size M (55.5–59 cm) designed for urban cycling and multi-season commuting. It combines a hard outer shell with an impact-absorbing liner and integrated MIPS technology to reduce rotational forces in certain impacts. The helmet includes an adjustable fit system and a comfortable interior that accommodates hats or thin balaclavas for cold-weather use while maintaining certified impact protection for riders.

Advantages

This helmet provides rotational-impact protection through MIPS technology while keeping a compact, low-profile silhouette suited to urban and commuter styles. The adjustable retention system and ergonomic straps offer a secure, customizable fit for head sizes within the M range. The matte stone pearl finish offers neutral styling that pairs with winter outerwear, and the internal padding is designed for comfort during prolonged rides in cool conditions.

Suitable for

• Commuting in urban and suburban environments during fall and winter
• Multi-season recreational cycling where extra cold-weather coverage is needed
• Riders who prefer a low-profile, women's specific helmet shape
• Use with light winter head layers such as thin hats or balaclavas

When it may not be suitable

This helmet is designed primarily for urban and recreational cycling rather than high-speed road racing or aggressive mountain biking where specialized ventilation, aerodynamics or full-face protection are required. Very thick winter helmets or heavy insulated liners may prevent the retention system from fitting as intended and could compromise comfort or safety.

Key specifications

• Intended use: urban commuting and multi-season recreational cycling
• Size range: Medium fit for head circumference approximately 55.5–59 cm
• Protection: rotational-impact mitigation system integrated
• Shell finish: matte stone pearl
• Fit system: adjustable rear retention for a secure fit
• Interior: removable/replaceable comfort padding suitable for cool-weather layers
• Straps: adjustable chin straps with quick-release buckle

How to use

Place the helmet level on the head so the front edge sits about one to two finger-widths above the eyebrows. Tighten the rear retention system until the helmet feels secure but comfortable; adjust chin straps to form a V shape under each ear and secure the buckle so one finger can fit between the strap and the chin. For winter use, wear thin hats or balaclavas under the helmet; ensure the retention system is still adjustable and that ventilation remains sufficient for comfort. Replace the helmet after any significant impact or according to the manufacturer's recommended service life for helmets.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure head circumference to confirm the helmet fits within the 55.5–59 cm M range
• Decide whether you need additional insulation for very cold conditions and whether that will affect fit
• Check compatibility with glasses, eyewear, and any required lights or accessories

Usage recommendations

For best protection, ensure the Kask is worn correctly on each ride, replace it after any crash, and periodically check the fit and integrity of straps, padding, and the retention system. Clean with mild soap and water and avoid solvents or excessive heat when storing.
